KFP serves as a statewide advocate of policies that will reduce the use of alcohol and other drugs by youth and promote healthy communities. KFP develops an annual advocacy agenda and enlists others in prevention to become active advocates. KFP has assisted in raising awareness about underage drinking and most recently, the loophole in Paul's Law, which the Kansas Legislature fixed during the 2007 Session.  KFP, along with other partners, also played an important role in the passage of keg registration legislation.

Kansas Family Partnership proudly participates with The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA), to celebrate Family Day – A Day to Eat Dinner with Your Children™, which was created in 2001 as a national effort to promote family dinners as an effective way to reduce substance abuse among children and teens. (more...)

Kansas Family Partnership is one of nine states selected to participate in a pilot project designed to build the capacity of parents to reduce drug use by their children. The Parent Corps will recruit, train and certify parent leaders to educate and mobilize them in drug prevention and to create support networks within neighborhoods and schools throughout the nation.

Research tells us that parents are the single most important factor in keeping their kids alcohol and drug-free. Since parents spend much of their time at work, employers can help share information that will help parents in their efforts to keep their kids free of alcohol and other drugs.
